The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1100

Chapter 1100: 923rd Chapter, Oil

Xiao Yeyang hosted a banquet for Zhu Jianzhong and Pang Guang, and introduced Yan Wenxiu, Xue Yi, and You Kai to them.

Zhu Jianzhong and Pang Guang warmly welcomed Xue Yi and You Kai to take up posts at their respective military posts.

Seeing this, Xue Yi and You Kai both let out a sigh of relief.

Their assignment to the military posts was, to put it bluntly, to help their brother-in-law better control the posts, with a significant purpose of surveillance involved, and they were indeed worried that the two Commanders might not be pleased.

If the highest officials of the military posts were dissatisfied with them, they could forget about any pleasant outcomes.

However, it seems that both Commanders are indeed shrewd people, choosing not to oppose their brother-in-law.

Of course, that is because their brother-in-law holds a valuable identity as a member of the Imperial Family; otherwise, anyone else might not receive such treatment.

This time coming to Xiliang, Xue Yi and You Kai had made full preparations and brought many people with them. After discussing and settling their positions with Xiao Yeyang, Zhu Jianzhong, and Pang Guang, they went to report to the military posts with the two Commanders the next day.

Before leaving, Xiao Yeyang gave each of them a carrier pigeon, instructing them to send a message if there was an urgent matter. This made them feel even more secure.

After Xue Yi and You Kai’s departure, Xiao Yeyang planned to accompany Yan Wenxiu to Xintunwei and also to inspect the military construction of Jianzhou Guard and Xintunwei.

Before leaving, Xiao Yeyang, concerned, admonished Daohua saying, "I may be away for about a month this time, you must be careful at home."

Daohua nodded continuously, "Don’t worry, with Master looking after me, I’ll be well-behaved. As for elder brother, you should provide more support."

Xiao Yeyang ’hmmed’ in agreement, "I’ve arranged two Hidden Guards to protect him, and there’s a Jinling Guard office at Xintunwei. Plus, he has his own Bodyguards, so safety shouldn’t be an issue."

Speaking, he lowered his head to Daohua’s stomach, "I don’t know if the little one inside knows I’m leaving, will they be reluctant to part?"

Upon hearing this, Daohua was speechless and amused, "How old is the child, and you’re already thinking about these things."

Xiao Yeyang lifted his head, "Didn’t you say, children have their own consciousness? I talk to him every day, he should remember me. If I leave, and he can’t hear my voice, he might miss me."

Daohua smiled, not arguing with him, "Then you should come back early."

Xiao Yeyang sat up and hugged Daohua, "By October, all twelve military towns will be completed. Once the defensive system is constructed, I won’t need to patrol around frequently, and I can spend more time with you and the child."

Daohua, "Winter is coming soon; there won’t be any movements from Xiliao this year, right?"

Xiao Yeyang, "Don’t worry, apart from sentries, I’ve also placed some people into Xiliao. If there’s any activity from Xiliao, I’ll receive advance notice."

Daohua nodded, and afterward, both she and Xiao Yeyang talked about the child.

...

Not long after Xiao Yeyang left Ganzhou City with Yan Wenxiu, gifts arrived for Daohua from the Prince Residence, Yan Residence, and Guo Ruomei.

Daohua, looking at the fully loaded twenty-plus horse-drawn carriages, let out a joyous chuckle and asked Guyu to store them in the storeroom; then she ordered Lixia to take the four midwives to rest in the courtyard.

The four midwives, two sent from the Prince Residence, one each from Yan Residence and Guo Ruomei, all specialized in delivering babies and were very experienced with newborns.

These people all arrived with the Li Family’s merchant convoy, and Li Chenzhi personally delivered the people and goods to the Xiao Residence.

Daohua with a smile said, "Third cousin, this is freshly made milk cake; try it."

Li Chenzhi wasn’t shy, and after finishing a piece, he said, "The cake shop you opened is so popular, I sometimes can’t even buy it."

Mainly because cousin Yiyi sold it at such a reasonable price, otherwise it might hold back a lot of people.

Daohua laughed, "If you want to eat it, third cousin, just send someone to mention it at the residence, why bother buying it at the shop?"

Li Chenzhi laughed and didn’t take up the offer, such a thing is okay once or twice, but more often would be inappropriate. The Li Family had already received a lot of favors from the Xiao Residence; they could not bother the cousin further.

Seeing that he did not take up the offer, Daohua did not say more and changed the subject, "I heard from Yan Shouhou that recently there seem to be some other merchant caravans coming to Xiliang."

Li Chenzhi nodded, "Our family and the Sun Family enter and leave Xiliang frequently, which is bound to catch the attention of others. Some bold ones looking to expand their market will naturally follow."

Daohua, "This is good, the more merchants that come, the better for the development of Xiliang. The better Xiliang does, the more money the merchants can make."

Li Chenzhi showed agreement, although with more merchants, the Li Family’s profits might decrease, but he wasn’t one to rest on his laurels.
